This commit introduces support for a number of new interpolation types
which are useful for motion-graphics work. These define a number of
"easing equations" (basically, equations which define some preset
ways that one keyframe transitions to another) which reduce the amount
of manual work (inserting and tweaking keyframes) to achieve certain
common effects. For example, snappy movements, and fake-physics such
as bouncing/springing effects.
The additional interpolation types introduced in this commit can be found
in many packages and toolkits (notably Qt and all modern web browsers).
For more info and a few live demos, see [1] and [2].

and value/lightness slider stops midway.
Issue here is manyfold:
Color wheel does not support properties with different soft min/max
values than 1.0 (which after experimenting a little I left as is), and
also color management is completely destroying the mapping between the
value slider and the RNA property value range. To solve this I have
disabled color management by setting the property to gamma corrected
(only in RNA, Sequence editor coders please check!), otherwise it will
just become a big mess of tracking where color comes from and what kind
of color transforms it needs in different color pickers (if property has
non normalized range etc). HSL is not really meant to represent colors
outside a normalized space so I have disabled setting lightness above
1.0 in this model.
This will work, however it is hacking a color picker to do something
other than what it is supposed to do: pick a color from the screen
accurately. Which means normalized values always. The non normalized
colors picked for lift/gain/gamma through the pickers do not correspond
to any accurate colors; they are rather a user friendly way to 'sort of'
choose a color and a gamma with an indication of maximum value.
I think that lift/gamma/gain nodes need a dedicated widget for this
(besides it is quite clear that some options are written for that use
case) -or- a separate gamma multiplier for the picked color (which
should itself be in a normalized space)
Issue was in BLI's rotation_between_vecs_to_quat(), which did not handled correctly cases where both vectors are colinear.
Patch by Campbell Barton and me.
Issue originaly tracked down by Yan Shi, many thanks!
This is a standard Hue - Saturation - Lightness model
(see for instance entry on wikipedia here: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/HSL_and_HSV)
Note though the difference between HSV and HSL saturation, which are not the same.
The advantage of having this color selection scheme is that artists can select
shades and tints of a color easily by using the lightness slider. Also colors
are arranged on (approximated) perceived lightness on the color wheel.
Beware, Old files opened with this preference saved will crash!

Issue of this bug is that most part of fftw is not thread safe, only compute-intensive fftw_execute & co are.
Since smoke was affected by this issue as well, a global fftw mutex was added to BLI_threads.
Audaspace also uses fftw in one of its readers (AUD_BandPassReader.cpp),
but this is not an issue currently since this code is disabled in CMake/scons files.
There was another threading issue with smoke, we need to copy dm used by emit_from_derivedmesh(),
as it is modified by this func.

Some int/float conversion warnings were disabled by buildsystems but
re-enabled by BLI_winstuff.h, the warnigns relate to conversions not
considered issues on other systems so better just quiet them.
Support for tagging polygon numbers when adding scanfill data,
saves having to calculate connectivity afterwards (which can take approx half overall scanfill time for complex curves).
